Understanding Additive Synthesis Colours

Additive synthesis is a method of creating colours by mixing light. In this process, different colours of light are combined, and their wavelengths add together.

Primary Colours in Additive Synthesis

The primary colours used in additive synthesis are:

  • Red
  • Green
  • Blue

These are often referred to as RGB colours. When these primary colours of light are mixed in various proportions, they can create a wide spectrum of other colours. For example, mixing red and green light produces yellow, green and blue produce cyan, blue and red produce magenta. Mixing all three primary colours (red, green, and blue) at their full intensity results in white light.

Relating to the Question

The question asks for the colours utilized in additive synthesis. Based on the principles of light mixing:

  • Option 1 correctly identifies the primary colours: Red, green, blue.
  • Option 2 (Cyan, magenta, red) and Option 3 (Cyan, magenta, red, key) represent colours associated with subtractive colour synthesis, used in printing and pigments.
  • Option 4 is incorrect because Option 1 is correct.

Therefore, the colours used in additive synthesis are Red, green, and blue.
